Chapter 2: Acceptance Means of Compliance to Part 66
CHAPTER 2: ACCEPTABLE MEANS OF

COMPLIANCE TO PART 66
This chapter contains Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) to Part-66 Chapter 1

Regulations. Acceptable Means of Compliance (AMC) illustrate a means, or several
alternative means, but not necessarily the only possible means by which a
requirement can be met.
2-1

SECTION A
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
AMC 66.A.10 Application
1. Maintenance experience should be written up in a manner that the reader has a
reasonable understanding of where, when and what maintenance constitutes the
experience. A task by task account is not necessary but at the same time a bland
statement X years maintenance experience completed is not acceptable. A log
book of maintenance experience is desirable and the Competent Authority may
require such log books to be kept. It is acceptable to cross refer in the SARI Form
19 to other documents containing information on maintenance.
2. Applicants claiming the maximum reduction in Part 66.A.30(a) total experience
based upon having successfully completed Competent Authority approved basic
training, should include the SARI 147 certificate of recognition for approved basic
training.
3. Applicants claiming reduction in Part 66.A.30(a) total experience based upon
having successfully completed technical training in an organisation or institute
recognised by the Competent Authority as a competent organisation or institute,
should include the relevant certificate of successful completion of training.
AMC 66.A.20(a) Privileges

The following definition of line and base maintenance should apply:
Line maintenance is any maintenance that is carried out before flight to ensure that the
aircraft is fit for the intended flight. It may include:
-
trouble shooting;
defect rectification;
component replacement with use of external test equipment if required.

Component replacement may include components such as engines and
propellers;
scheduled maintenance and/or checks including visual inspections that will

detect obvious unsatisfactory conditions/discrepancies but do not require
extensive in depth inspection. It may also include internal structure, systems
and power plant items which are visible through quick opening access
panels/doors;
minor repairs and modifications which do not require extensive disassembly

and can be accomplished by simple means;
2-2

for temporary or occasional cases (airworthiness directives, hereinafter AD;

service bulletins, hereinafter SB) the quality manager may accept base
maintenance tasks to be performed by a line maintenance organisation
provided all requirements are fulfilled. The Competent Authority will prescribe
the conditions under which these tasks may be performed.
Maintenance tasks falling outside these criteria are considered to be base maintenance.
Note: Aircraft maintained in accordance with "progressive" type programmes need to
be individually assessed in relation to this paragraph. In principle, the decision
to allow some "progressive" checks to be carried out is determined by the
assessment that all tasks within the particular check can be carried out safely to
the required standards at the designated line maintenance station
AMC 66.A.20(b)(2) Privileges.
The 6 months maintenance experience in 2 years should be understood as consisting of
two elements, duration and nature of the experience. The minimum to meet the
requirements for these elements may vary depending on the size and complexity of the
aircraft and type of operation and maintenance.
1. Duration:
Within an approved maintenance organization:
-
6 months continuous employment within the same organisation; or

6 months split up into different blocks, employed within the same or in
different organisations.
The 6 months period can be replaced by 100 days of maintenance experience in

accordance with the privileges, whether they have been performed within an approved
organisation or as independent certifying staff according to SARI or the corresponding
regulation issued by the Competent Authority or as a combination hereof.
When certifying staff maintains and releases aircraft in accordance with Part
M.801(b)2, in certain circumstances this number of days may even be reduced by 50%
when agreed in advance by the Competent Authority. These circumstances consider
the cases where the holder of a Part-66 licence happens to be the owner of an aircraft
and carries out maintenance on his own aircraft, or where a licence holder maintains an
aircraft operated for low utilization, that does not allow the licence holder to
accumulate the required experience. This reduction should not be combined with the
20% reduction permitted when carrying out technical support, or maintenance
planning, continuing airworthiness management or engineering activities. To avoid a
too long period without experience, the working days should be spread over the
intended 6 months period.
2-3

2. Nature of the experience:

Depending on the category of the aircraft maintenance licence, the following activities
are considered relevant for maintenance experience:
-
Servicing;
Inspection;
Operational and functional testing;
Trouble-shooting;
Repairing;
Modifying;
Changing component;
Supervising these activities;
Releasing aircraft to service.
For category A certifying staff, the experience should include exercising the privileges,
by means of performing tasks related to the authorization on at least one aircraft type
for each licence subcategory. This means tasks as mentioned in AMC 145.30(g),
including servicing, component changes and simple defect rectifications.
For category B1 and B2, for every aircraft included in the authorization the experience
should be on that particular aircraft or on a similar aircraft within the same licence
subcategory. Two aircraft can be considered as similar when they have similar
technology, construction and comparable systems, which means equally equipped with
the following (as applicable to the licence category):
(a) Propulsion systems (piston or turboprop or turbofan or turbo-shaft or jetengine or push propellers); and
(b) Flight control systems (only mechanical controls or hydro-mechanically
powered controls or electro-mechanically powered controls); and
(c) Avionic systems (analog systems or digital systems); and
(d) Structure (manufactured of metal or composite or wood).
As an alternative to the above:
-
In the case of B1 licence endorsed with group ratings (either manufacturer

group or full group) as defined in SARI-66.45(g) the holder may show
experience on at least one aircraft type per group and per aircraft structure
(metal, composite, wood).
In the case of a B2 licence endorsed with group ratings (either manufacturer

group or full group) as defined in SARI-66.45(g) the holder may show
experience on at least one aircraft type per group.
For category C, the experience should cover at least one of the aircraft types endorsed
on the authorization.
For a combination of categories, the experience should include some activities of the
nature shown in paragraph 2 in each category.
2-4

A maximum of 20% of the experience duration required may be replaced by the

following relevant activities on an aircraft type of similar technology, construction and
with comparable systems:
-
Aircraft maintenance related training as an instructor/assessor or as a student;

Maintenance technical support/engineering;
Maintenance management/planning.
The experience should be documented in an individual log book or in any other

recording system (which may be an automated one) containing the following data:
(a) Date;
(b) Aircraft type;
(c) Aircraft identification i.e. registration;
(d) ATA chapter (optional);
(e) Operation performed i.e. 100 FH check, MLG wheel change, engine oil check
and complement, SB embodiment, troubleshooting, structural repair, STC
embodiment;
(f) Type of maintenance i.e. base, line;
(g) Type of activity i.e. perform, supervise, release;
(h) Category used A, B1, B2 or C.
AMC 66.A.20(b)3 Privileges

The wording has the adequate competence to certify maintenance on the
corresponding aircraft means that the licence holder and, if applicable, the
organisation where he/she is contracted/employed, should ensure that he/she has
acquired the appropriate knowledge, skills, attitude and experience to release the
aircraft being maintained. This is essential because some systems and technology
present in the particular aircraft being maintained may not have been covered by
the training/examination/experience required to obtain the licence and ratings.
This is typically the case, among others, in the following situations:
Type ratings which have been endorsed on a licence in accordance with

Appendix I to AMC to Part-66 List of Type Ratings after attending type
training which did not cover all the models/variants included in such rating.
For example, a licence endorsed with the rating Airbus
A318/A319/A320/A321 (CFM56) after attending type training covering only
the Airbus 320 (CFM56).
Type ratings which have been endorsed on a licence in accordance with

Appendix I to AMC to Part-66 List of Type Ratings after a new variant has
been added to the rating in Appendix I, without performing difference
training. For example, a licence endorsed with the rating Boeing 737600/700/800/900 for a person who already had the rating Boeing 737600/700/800, without performing any difference training for the 737-900.
2-5

Work being carried out on a model/variant for which the technical design and
maintenance techniques have significantly evolved from the original model
used in the type training.
Specific technology and options selected by each customer which may not
have been covered by the type training.
Changes in the basic knowledge requirements of Appendix I to Part-66 not

requiring re-examination of existing licence holders (grandfathered
privileges).
The endorsement of group/subgroup ratings based on experience on a

representative number of tasks/aircraft or based on type training/examination
on a representative number of aircraft.
Persons meeting the requirements of 6 months of experience every 2 years

only on certain similar aircraft types as allowed by AMC 66.A.20(b)2.
Persons holding a Part-66 licence with limitations, obtained through

conversion of national qualifications (66.A.70), where such limitations are
going to be lifted after performing the corresponding basic knowledge
examinations. In this case, the type ratings endorsed in the licence may have
been obtained in the national system without covering all the aircraft systems
(because of the previous limitations) and there will be a need to assess and, if
applicable, to train this person on the missing systems.
AMC 66.A.25
1. For an applicant being a person qualified by holding an academic degree in an

aeronautical, mechanical or electronic discipline from a recognised university or
other higher educational institute the need for any examination will depend upon
the course taken in relation to Appendix I to Part-66.
2. Knowledge gained and examinations passed during previous experiences, for
example, in military aviation and civilian apprenticeships will be credited where
the Competent Authority is satisfied that such knowledge and examinations are
equivalent to that required by Appendix I to Part-66.
AMC 66.A.30(a)
1. For a category C applicant holding an academic degree the representative

selection of tasks should include the observation of hangar maintenance,
maintenance planning, quality assurance, record-keeping, approved spare parts
control and engineering development.
2. While an applicant to a SARI-66 category C licence may be qualified by having
3 years experience as category B1 or B2 certifying staff only in line maintenance,
it is however recommended that any applicant to a category C holding a B1 or
B2 licence demonstrate at least 12 months experience as a B1 or B2 base
maintenance support staff.
3. A skilled worker is a person who has successfully completed a course of training
course acceptable to the Competent Authority, involving the manufacture, repair,
2-6

overhaul or inspection of mechanical, electrical or electronic equipment. The

training would include the use of tools and measuring devices.
4. Maintenance experience on operating aircraft:
Means the experience of being involved in maintenance tasks on aircraft which
are being operated by airlines, air taxi organisations, owners, etc.;
- Should cover a wide range of tasks in length, complexity and variety;
- Aims at gaining sufficient experience in the real environment of maintenance
as opposed to only the training school environment;
- May be gained within different types of maintenance organisations (Part-145,
M.A. Subpart F, FAR-145, etc.) or under the supervision of independent
certifying staff;
- May be combined with Part-147 approved training so that periods of training
can be intermixed with periods of experience, similar to an apprenticeship.
AMC 66.A.30(d) Experience requirements

To be considered as recent experience, at least 50% of the required 12 month
experience should be gained within the 12 month period prior to the date of application
for the Part-66 aircraft maintenance licence. The remainder of the recent experience
should have been gained within the 7 year period prior to application.
AMC 66.A.30(e) Experience requirements

1. For category A the additional experience of civil aircraft maintenance should be a
minimum of 6 months. For category B1 or B2 the additional experience of civil
aircraft maintenance should be a minimum of 12 months.
2. Aircraft maintenance experience gained outside a civil aircraft maintenance
environment can include aircraft maintenance experience gained in armed forces,
coast guards, police etc. or in aircraft manufacturing.
AMC 66.A.45(a) Type/task training and ratings

1. For category A certifying staff specific training on each aircraft type will be
required reflecting the authorised task(s) as indicated under SARI-66.20(a) 1.
2. Appropriately approved SARI-145 or SARI-147 organisation means compliance
with the applicable paragraphs of AMC 66.45
AMC 66.A.45(d) Type/task training and ratings

1. The training should give adequate detailed theoretical knowledge of the aircraft, its
main parts, systems, equipment, interior and applicable components, including
training in the systems in use for technical manuals and maintenance procedures.
The course should also take into account the following:
(a) in service experience on the aircraft type;
2-7

(b) feedback from in-service difficulties/occurrence reporting etc;

(c) significant airworthiness directives and/or service bulletins;
(d) known human factors issues associated with the particular aircraft type.
2. Theoretical training should be supported by training aids such as aircraft system
components. Ground simulator time, engine ground running and computer based
training (CBT) etc may also be utilised.
3. Theoretical and practical training should also take into account the critical aspects
of Fuel Tank Safety (FTS) airworthiness limitation items (ALI) including Critical
Design Configuration Control Limitations (CDCCL).
4. Knowledge is also recommended of relevant inspections and limitations as
applicable to the effects of environmental factors such as cold and hot climates,
wind, moisture, etc.
5. The practical training must comprise a period of 4 months for applicants with no
recent recorded previous practical experience of aircraft of comparable
construction and systems, including the engines, but this can be reduced to a
minimum of two weeks for applicant with such previous experience.
6. A programme of structured on-job-training (OJT) may be prepared to satisfy the
practical training requirement.
Where the practical training element is conducted by or under the responsibility of
the training organisation under a SARI 147 approval or a direct type course
approval, it should be considered as part of the approved course and as such, its
acceptance by the Competent Authority should be supported by a detailed syllabus
showing its content and duration. The individual practical training records should
be designed in a manner that they demonstrate compliance with the detailed
practical training syllabus. Such records may take the form of an individual
training logbook. The logbook should be designed such that tasks may be
countersigned by the Part-147 school or other course provider.
Where the practical training element is conducted by a maintenance organisation
approved under Part145, under its own responsibility, its acceptance by the
Competent Authority should be supported by a detailed syllabus showing its
content and duration. The individual practical training records should be designed
in a manner that they demonstrate compliance with the detailed practical training
syllabus. Alternatively, the practical training element may consist of a structured
OJT programme. In this case the maintenance organisation approved under Part145 should provide applicants for a type rating a logbook indicating a list of tasks
to be performed under supervision. The logbook should be designed such that tasks
may be countersigned by the supervisor. The list of tasks should be accepted either
directly for each individual depending on the individuals previous experience, or
indirectly through the acceptance of a procedure giving delegation to the
maintenance organisation.
In all cases the practical element should include an acceptable cross section of
maintenance tasks, which, in the case of a structured OJT, can be tailored to
accommodate the operating profile of the Part-145 organisation whilst also
supplementing the theoretical course elements. The means by which the practical
2-8

element is supervised and the control of the standard should be acceptable to the
Competent Authority. The duration of the practical type training element should
take into account significant differences between types and be acceptable to
Competent Authority. These differences will require considerably more practical
training for certifying staff who are not familiar with the new techniques and
technologies. Some examples of differences may include, but are not limited to, the
following elements: Fly by wire, glass cockpit avionics, significant structural
differences, etc.
7. Before grant of the aircraft type, the applicant should be able to:
(a) demonstrate by knowledge examination a detailed understanding of applicable
systems, their operation and maintenance;
(b) ensure safe performance of maintenance, inspections and routine work
according to the maintenance manual and other relevant instructions and tasks,
as appropriate, for the type of aircraft, for example trouble shooting, repairs,
adjustments, replacements, rigging and functional checks such as engine run,
etc, if required;
(c) correctly use all technical literature and documentation for the aircraft;
(d) correctly use specialist/special tooling and test equipment, perform removal
and replacement of components and modules unique to type, including any onwing maintenance activity.
8. The practical assessment should also ensure safe performance of maintenance,
inspections and routine work according to the maintenance manual and other
relevant instructions and tasks as appropriate for the type of aircraft, for example
trouble shooting, repairs, adjustments (rigging), replacements and functional /
operational checks etc including engine operation (ground running) if required.
2-9

AMC 66.A.45(e) Type/task training and ratings

Category C certifying staff may not carry out the duties of category B1 or B2, or
equivalent within base maintenance, unless they hold the relevant B1 or B2 category
and have passed type training corresponding to the relevant B1 or B2 category.
AMC 66.A.45(g) Type/task training and ratings

1. Aircraft types representative of a group means that:
-
for the B1 category the aircraft type should include typical systems and engines
relevant to the group (e.g. retractable undercarriage, pressurisation, variable
pitch propeller, etc. for the single piston engine metal subgroup) and,
for the B2 category the aircraft type should include complex avionics systems
such as radio coupled autopilot, EFIS (Electronic flight instrument system),
flight guidance systems, etc .
2. A multiple engines group automatically includes the corresponding single

engine group.
AMC 66.A.45(h) Type/task training and ratings
1. Type experience should cover an acceptable cross section of tasks from Appendix
II. For the first aircraft type of each manufacturer group, at least 50% of the
Appendix II tasks, as applicable to the concerned aircraft type and licence
category, should be performed. For the second aircraft type of each manufacturer
group, this should be reduced to 30%. For subsequent aircraft types of each
manufacturer group, this should be reduced to 20%.
2. Type experience should be demonstrated by the submission of records or logbook
showing the Appendix II tasks performed by the applicant as specified by the
Competent Authority.
AMC 66.A.70 Conversion provisions

Technical limitations will be deleted, as appropriate, when the person satisfactorily sits
the relevant conversion examination and gains relevant experience.

SECTION B
PROCEDURE FOR COMPETENT AUTHORITIES
AMC 66.B.100 Procedure for the issue of an aircraft maintenance licence by the
competent authority
1. Applicants claiming credit against the 66.A.30(a) total experience requirement by virtue
of 66.A.30(d) non-civil aircraft maintenance experience, may only be granted such credit
where the Member State has recognised such non-civil aircraft maintenance experience.
The competent authority in recognising non-civil aircraft maintenance experience will
have specified who within the non-civil environment may make a statement that the
applicant has met relevant maintenance experience. The applicant should include a
detailed statement of such maintenance experience signed by the non-civil maintenance
authority in accordance with the conditions specified in the competent authoritys letter
of recognition.
2. The competent authority should check that the experience record satisfies above
paragraphs in terms of content and the countersigning signature.
AMC 66.B.110 Procedure for the amendment of an aircraft maintenance licence to

include an additional basic category or subcategory
In the case of computer generated licences, the licence should be reissued.
AMC 66.B.115 Procedure for the amendment of an aircraft maintenance licence to

include an aircraft type or group
Where aircraft type training is covered by more than one course, for example airframe and
engine courses, the competent authority should ensure prior to the type rating endorsement that
the content of the courses fully covers the scope of the license category. In this case, it is
important that the interface is addressed.
In the case of differences training for a similar type, the competent authority should be satisfied
that the candidates previous qualification supplemented by the differences training is
acceptable as regards the type endorsement.
Determination of compliance with the practical elements can be demonstrated by provision of
the detailed practical training records or logbook or, where available by a Part-147 training
certificate covering the practical training element.
AMC 66.B.100 to 115

Aircraft type endorsement should use the standard codes contained in Appendix I.
2-11

AMC 66.B.305
Conversion report for national qualifications
The scope of the national qualifications and the Part-66 licence should be compared on the
basis of a detailed analysis of the national and Part-66 basic qualification standards. The report
should identify where a difference between the two standards exists. The report should show
where such a difference would lead to a limitation on the Part-66 licence.

Chapter 3: Guidance Material to Part 66
CHAPTER 3: GUIDANCE MATERIAL TO

PART 66
3-1

SECTION A
GM 66.A.20 (a)
Privileges
1. The following titles shown against each category designator below are intended to
provide a readily understandable indication of the job function:
Category A: Line maintenance certifying mechanic.
Category B1: Maintenance certifying technician - mechanical.
Category B2: Maintenance certifying technician - avionic.
Category C: Base maintenance certifying engineer.
The titles adopted by each competent authority may differ from those shown to reflect
titles used in the national language for the above functions but the designators A, B1,
B2 and C are required by 66.A.20.
2. Individual aircraft maintenance licence holders need not be restricted to a single
category. Provided that each qualification requirement is satisfied, any combination of
categories may be granted.
GM 66.A.20(a)
Privileges
1. The following definitions apply:

Electrical system means the aircraft electrical power supply source, plus the
distribution system to the different components contained in the aircraft and relevant
connectors. Lighting systems are also included in this definition. When working on
cables and connectors which are part of these electrical systems, the following typical
practices are included in the privileges:
Continuity, insulation and bonding techniques and testing;
Crimping and testing of crimped joints;
Connector pin removal and insertion;
Wiring protection techniques.
Avionics system means an aircraft system that transfers, processes, displays or stores
analogue or digital data using data lines, data buses, coaxial cables, wireless or other
data transmission medium, and includes the systems components and connectors.
Examples of avionics systems include the following:
Autoflight;
Communication, Radar and Navigation;
Instruments (see NOTE below);
In-Flight Entertainment Systems;
Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA);
On-Board Maintenance Systems;
3-2

Information Systems;
Fly-by-Wire Systems (related to ATA27 Flight Controls);
Fibre Optic Control Systems.
NOTE:
Instruments are formally included in the privileges of the B2 licence holders. However,
maintenance on electromechanical and pitot-static components may also be released by
a B1 license holder.
Simple test means a test described in approved maintenance data and meeting all the
following criteria:
The serviceability of the system can be verified using aircraft controls,

switches, Built-in Test Equipment (BITE), Central Maintenance Computer
(CMC) or external test equipment not involving special training.
The outcome of the test is a unique gono go indication or parameter, which

can be a single value or a value within an interval tolerance. No interpretation
of the test result or interdependence of different values is allowed.
The test does not involve more than 10 actions as described in the approved
maintenance data (not including those required to configure the aircraft prior to
the test, i.e. jacking, flaps down, etc.., or to return the aircraft to its initial
configuration). Pushing a control, switch or button, and reading the
corresponding outcome may be considered as a single step even if the
maintenance data shows them separated.
Trouble shooting means the procedures and actions necessary to identify the root
cause of a defect or malfunction using approved maintenance data. It may include the
use of BITE or external test equipment.
Line maintenance means any maintenance that is carried out before flight to ensure
that the aircraft is fit for the intended flight. It may include:
trouble shooting;
defect rectification;
component replacement with the use of external test equipment, if required.

Component replacement may include components such as engines and
propellers;
scheduled maintenance and/or checks including visual inspections that will

detect obvious unsatisfactory conditions/discrepancies but do not require
extensive in-depth inspection. It may also include internal structure, systems
and powerplant items which are visible through quick opening access
panels/doors;
minor repairs and modifications which do not require extensive disassembly

and can be accomplished by simple means;
for temporary or occasional cases (Airworthiness Directives, hereinafter AD;

service bulletins, hereinafter SB) the quality manager may accept base
maintenance tasks to be performed by a line maintenance organisation
provided all requirements are fulfilled. The Member State will prescribe the
conditions under which these tasks may be performed.
3-3

Base Maintenance means any task falling outside the criteria are given above for Line
Maintenance.
NOTE:
Aircraft maintained in accordance with progressive type programmes need to be
individually assessed in relation to this paragraph. In principle, the decision to allow
some progressive checks to be carried out is determined by the assessment that all
tasks within the particular check can be carried out safely to the required standards at
the designated line maintenance station.
2. The category B1 licence also permits the certification of work involving avionic
systems, providing the serviceability of the system can be established by a simple selftest facility, other on-board test systems/equipment or by simple ramp test equipment.
Defect rectification involving test equipment which requires an element of decision
making in its application - other than a simple go/no-go decision - cannot be certified.
The category B2 will need to be qualified as category A in order to carry out simple
mechanical tasks and be able to make certifications for such work.
3. The category C licence permits certification of scheduled base maintenance by the
issue of a single certificate of release to service for the complete aircraft after the
completion of all such maintenance. The basis for this certification is that the
maintenance has been carried out by competent mechanics and category B1 and B2
support staff, as appropriate, have signed for the maintenance tasks under their
respective specialisation. The principal function of the category C certifying staff is to
ensure that all required maintenance has been called up and signed off by the category
B1 and B2 support staff, as appropriate, before issue of the certificate of release to
service. Only category C personnel who also hold category B1 and B2 qualifications
may perform both roles in base maintenance.
GM 66.A.20(b) 4
Privileges
1. Holders of a Part-66 aircraft maintenance licence may not exercise certification

privileges unless they have a general knowledge of the language used within the
maintenance environment including knowledge of common aeronautical terms in the
language. The level of knowledge should be such that the licence holder is able to:
read and understand the instructions and technical manuals in use within the
organisation;
make written technical entries and any maintenance documentation entries, which
can be understood by those with whom they are normally required to
communicate;
read and understand the maintenance organisation procedures;
communicate at such a level as to prevent any misunderstanding when exercising
certification privileges.
2. In all cases, the level of understanding should be compatible with the level of
certification privileges exercised.
3-4

GM 66.A.25(a)
The levels of knowledge are directly related to the complexity of certifications

appropriate to the particular 66.A.1 category, which means that category A must
demonstrate a limited but adequate level of knowledge, whereas category B1 and B2
must demonstrate a complete level of knowledge in the appropriate subject modules.
Category C certifying staff must meet the relevant level of knowledge for B1 or B2.
GM 66.A.30(a)
Maintenance experience on operating aircraft means the experience of being involved in

maintenance tasks on aircraft which are being operated by airlines, air taxi organisations,
etc. The point being to gain sufficient experience in the environment of commercial
maintenance as opposed to only the training school environment. Such experience may
be combined with approved training so that periods of training can be intermixed with
periods of experience rather like the apprenticeship.
GM 66.A.40
Validity of the Part-66 aircraft maintenance licence is not affected by recency of

maintenance experience whereas the validity of the 66.A.20 privileges is affected by
maintenance experience as specified in 66.A.20(a)
GM 66.A.45(d)
1. The required duration of practical training must be accepted on a case by case basis by
the competent authority prior to the type rating endorsement. It is strongly
recommended that the agreement on the practical training duration be reached before
the training starts. For applicants from a Part-145 organisation, the required duration
may be approved through the organisations MOE procedures.
2. While it is not feasible to establish a formula giving the required training duration in
all cases, the following may be used as a guideline:
(a) For a first type training course with no recent recorded maintenance experience
four month practical training is required.
(b) Some factors that may lead to a reduction in the maximum duration of 4 months
practical training required are as follows:
- experience on aircraft type of a similar technology, construction and systems
including engines;
- recency on type;
- the quantity of the practical experience. For example experience gained will
depend upon the environment e.g. line maintenance environment with one
aircraft per week would permit limited experience compared with the
constant base maintenance check environment;
- the quality of the practical experience. The type of tasks carried out. These
tasks should reflect, at a minimum, those tasks specified by the practical
3-5

training needs matrix developed by the organisation approved under Part

147.
3. The minimum two weeks practical training is normally required for all type training
courses. This includes the addition of similar type ratings on a Part-66 licence
(differences courses). There may be cases where the practical differences training
required is less than two weeks for example an engineer with a Part-66 type license in
category B2 on an Airbus A330 with PW 4000 engines who takes a differences course
to an Airbus A330 with Rolls Royce Trent engines.
It should be noted however that while AMC 66.A.45(d) specifies a practical training
duration between 2 weeks and 4 months, in the case of a structured OJT performed at
line stations, due to the availability of aircraft its duration may need be subsequently
extended in order to fulfill the required list of supervised tasks.
4. Except in those cases where the Part-147 organisation determines the practical training
required it is the responsibility of the maintenance organisation to determine that the
duration of practical training is commensurate with the candidates recency and
experience. However, in either case the Member State must satisfy itself that the
practical training is of sufficient duration before adding a type rating.
Limited avionics system training should be included in the category B1 type training
as the B1 privileges include the replacement of avionic line replaceable units.
Electrical systems should be included in both categories type training.
GM 66.A.45 (f)
The examinations in respect of category B1 or B2 or C aircraft type ratings may be

conducted by training organisations appropriately approved under Part-147, the Member
State or an organisation accepted by the Member State to conduct such examination.
GM 66.A.45 (d) and (e)
Part-66 Appendix III type training levels are based upon ATA 104 (Air Transport
Association) corresponding type training levels.
GM 66.A.70
For example a technical limitation could be where a person holds a pre Part-66 national
licence or authorisation limited to the release of the airframe and engine but not the
electrical power system. This person would be issued with a Part-66 aircraft maintenance
licence in the B1 category with a limitation excluding electrical power systems. Other
limitations may be necessary after comparison between the National qualification
syllabus and the Part 66 syllabus.

Procedure for the renewal of an aircraft maintenance

licence validity
The competent authority will not be carrying out any investigation to ensure that the
licence holder is in current maintenance practice as this is a matter for the
maintenance organization approved under Part 145 in ensuring validity of the Part
145 certification authorization.
GM 66.B.200
Examination by the competent authority
1. Reserved
2.
The primary purpose of essay questions is to determine that the candidates can
express themselves in a clear and concise manner and can prepare a concise
technical report for the maintenance record, which is why only a few essay
questions are required.
3.
Oral type questions may not be used as the primary means of examination
because of the difficulty in establishing consistency of standards between
examiners or day to day.
Nothing however prevents the competent authority from meeting potential
certifying staff for the purpose of ensuring they understand their obligations and
responsibilities in the application of maintenance parts.
4.
For pass mark purposes, the essay questions should be considered as separate
from the multiple choice questions.
5. Multiple choice question (MCQ) generation:

The following principles should be observed when developing multiple choice
questions:
(a)
The examination should measure clearly formulated goals. Therefore the

field and depth of knowledge to be measured by each question must be
fully identified.
(b) All the questions should be of the multiple choice type with three
alternatives answers.
(c)
Questions that require specialized knowledge of specific aircraft type,

should not be asked in a basic licence examination.
(d) The use of abbreviations and acronyms should be generally avoided.

However where needed only internationally recognized abbreviations and
3-7

acronyms should be used. In case of doubt use the full form, e.g. angle of
attack =12 degrees instead of a=12
(e)
Questions and answers should be formulated as simply as possible: the

examination is not a test of language. Complex sentences, unusual
grammar and double negatives should be avoided.
(f)
A question should comprise one complete positive proposition. No more

than 3 different statements should appear among the suggested responses
otherwise the candidate may be able to deduce the correct answer by
eliminating the unlikely combinations of statements.
(g) Questions should have only one true answer.

(h) The correct answer should be absolutely correct and complete or, without
doubt, the most preferable. Responses that are so essentially similar that the
choice is a matter of opinion rather than a matter of fact should be avoided.
The main interest in MCQs is that they can be quickly performed: this is
not achieved if doubt exists about the correct answer.
(i)
The incorrect alternatives must seem equally plausible to anyone ignorant

of the subject. All of the alternatives should be clearly related to the
question and of similar vocabulary, grammatical construction and length. In
numerical questions, the incorrect answers should correspond to procedural
errors such as corrections applied in the wrong sense of incorrect unit
conversions: they must not be mere random numbers.
(j)
Calculators are not allowed during examination. Therefore all calculations

should be feasible without a calculator. Where a question involves
calculations not feasible without a calculator, such as 10, then the
question should specify the approximate value of 10.
(k) Questions must be referred to Part-66 Appendix I examination syllabus.

6. Essay question generation:
(a) The purpose of the essay is to allow the competent authority to determine if
candidates can express themselves in a clear and concise manner in the form
of a written response, in a technical report format using the technical
language of the aviation industry. The essay examination also allows to
access, in part, the technical knowledge retained by the individual and with a
practical application relevant to a maintenance scenario.
(b) Questions should be written so as to be broad enough to be answered by
candidates for all licence category or sub-categories (Cat A, B1 & B2) and
comply with the following general guidelines.
- the question topic selected should be generic, applicable to mechanical as
well as avionic licence categories and have a common technical difficulty
level as indicated in Part-66, Appendix 1.
- cover technology applicable to most areas of aircraft maintenance.
3-8

- reflects common working practices.

- it is not type or manufacturer specific and avoids subjects which are rarely
found in practice.
- When drafting a question there is a need to ensure consideration is given to
the limited practical experience that most candidates will have.
(c) In order that the questions and the marking procedures are as consistent as
possible, each question and model answer, with the required key areas
required (see below) should be reviewed independently by at least 2 technical
staff.
(d) When raising questions the following should be considered:
- each essay question will have a time allowance of 20 minutes.
- a complete A4 side is provided for each question and answer, if required
the answer can be extended to reverse side of the page.
- the question should be such that the answer expected will be at the level
shown for that subject in the module syllabus.
- the question should not be ambiguous but should seek a broad reply rather
than be limited in scope for answer.
- the question should lend itself to be written in a technical report style, in a
logical sequence (beginning, middle and end), containing the applicable
and relevant technical words needed in the answer.
- do not ask for drawings/sketches to support the essay.
- the question must be relevant to the category and level of difficulty listed in
the syllabus, e.g. a description of a typical general aviation system may not
be acceptable for a typical commercial aeroplane.
-
subject to obvious constraints in relation to the topic being addressed the

question should have a strong bias towards the practical maintenance of a
system/component and the answer should show an understanding of normal
and deteriorated conditions of an aircraft and its systems.
Variations on alternative possible answers which have not been thought of
may have to be taken into account to aid the examiner when marking. If
considered relevant, the model answer should be amended to include these
new points.
(e) Because of the difficulty in marking an essay answer using key points only,
there is a need for the way in which the report was written to be assessed and
taken into consideration.
3-9

(f) The total points for each question will add-up to 100 and will need to reflect
both the combination of the technical (key point) element and the report style
element.
(g) Each key point will be graded upon its importance and have point weighting
allocated to it. The total weight will represent 60% of the mark.
(h) Key points are the important elements that may be knowledge or
experience-based and will include other maintenance orientated factors such
as relevant safety precautions or legislative practices if applicable. Excessive
reference to the need for MM referral or safety checks may be considered
wasteful.
(i) The question answer will be analysed for the clarity and manner in which the
essay report is presented and have a weighting allocated to it which will
represent 40% of the mark.
(j) The answer should show the candidates ability to express himself in
technical language. This includes readability of the language, basic grammar
and use of terminology.
(k) The report starts in the beginning and has a logical process to reach a
conclusion.
(l) Supporting diagrams should not be encouraged but if used should
supplement the answer and not replace the need for a broad text answer.
(m) The report should not be indexed, itemized or listed.
(n) Within reason the candidate should not be penalized for incorrect spelling.
(o) A zero mark should only be given in exceptional circumstances. Even if the
student misunderstands the question and gives an answer to a different
question, a sympathetic mark even if only for the report style should be
given, this could up to the maximum percentage allowed.
(p) The two allocated marks should be added together and written into the
answer paper.
(q) If a question answer resulting in a borderline failure is principally due to
written report errors, the paper should be discussed and the mark agreed if
possible with another examiner.
